ABSTRACT
Respiratory motion is an important issue in radiotherapy as it can cause many problems such as damages to healthy tissues. Different methods have been introduced to estimate the respiratory motion but most of them need some electronic devices or expensive materials. In this research we proposed a respiratory motion estimation method by tracking inexpensive and easy to use visual coded markers using stereo vision.
